There is no dilemma that military symbolizes the power and thecapacity of the state to ensure the security of its boundaries, but also to influence thesecurity in wider frameworks. Military potential itself was the grounds for the equilibrium ofthe world until the fall of the Berlin Wall. However, the following historic events haveentailed a redefinition process of the military's place in the state. This has resulted inreforms of the military potential and the interconnection of the civil and the militaryrelations at both the national and the international level. The current threats and risksagainst security additionally underline the necessity for such interconnection because themilitary culture significantly differs from the civilian culture in the approach to certainsecurity related issues. The situation in the Republic of Macedonia since the period ofgaining independence onwards is similar. This text aims to make a very brief analysis of thepreference of the military security option over the civilian option, and, at the same time, ofthe situation in the Republic of Macedonia related to this issue in the past 20 years.Key words: armed forces, defence interests, security environment, politicalinfluence, security threats.

The Military Revolution and Revolutions in Military Affairs updates two central debates in military history--the one surrounding the concept of military revolution, and the one on military affairs--whilst advancing original research in both fields. Only a handful of publications consider the military revolution and the RMA in tandem. This book breaks new ground conceptually and appeals to an exceptionally large and diverse readership. Comparative revisionist studies of the military revolution and RMA better enable us to comprehend the historical continuum and reveal the new RMA for what it is. And for what it is shortly to become. This book presents original contributions within the "epicentre" of the military revolution debate, the 1500s, with an emphasis on gunpowder revolution (offensively and defensively). The connections with the Revolution in Military Affairs are then made explicit by scholars, a practitioner, and an analyst, with an emphasis on airborne lethal autonomous weapons systems. This is a chronologically broad and unique methodological approach to a historical debate that begs for clarification as we enter an era where killer robots will almost certainly take from humans their monopoly on violence
